About Christian Hardwicke

I started fishing with my brothers when I was about ten years old. Our Dad used to drop us off over at Walthamstow or Aquatels in Basildon. About ten years ago I started to get that feeling you get when you reel in your last rod. I started to sit at work dreaming of the lake and obsessing about catching fish. At present I am fishing the Essex Manor and so far have caught five of the target fish despite only fishing one night a week.

Mainline have always been my first choice of bait simply because I have 100% confidence in it - where Pro-Active Pineapple was always a favourite of mine until the unstoppable Cell came along!
